Many websites and software packages offer automated bidding based on the end time of an eBay auction. They try to automatically place your bid just before the auction ends, and some try to synchronize with eBay servers to ensure your bid wins. When you sign up with third-party providers that offer automated bidding, you should make sure they are trustworthy before entrusting them with any personal data, like your eBay password.
Remember, you are responsible for any information you give to third-party services. If you've made a mistake when bidding on an item, you can retract your bid in certain circumstances. Automatic bidding is the easiest way to bid on an eBay auction. Many sniping tools also offer browser extensions that save you a couple of clicks.
Keep in mind that to use any of these services, you'll need to hand over your eBay login information. It might be a good idea to use an extra email address or an entirely different eBay account if you're going to be sniping.
Sign in with your eBay username and password to get started. Then go to eBay and find the item you want and make a note of the item number. You can find the item number in the URL or in the top-right corner of the Description box. Enter the item number and your maximum bid in Gixen and hit Add. You can also group items so you can place snipe bids on multiple copies of the same item without winning them all.
If you win one, the other bids won't be raised in response to someone else bidding. That's all there is to it. The sniper's automatic bidding software will take care of the rest. Of course, using paid services gives you more options. But Gixen is a great way to snipe a few times and see if it's worth investing in. And it's worth mentioning that you can always snipe using eBay's proxy bidding system. Just hang out on an item page until the auction is almost over, and register your bid right before it ends.
If you feel like sniping software is cheating, this strategy might appeal to you. Sniping is generally pretty straightforward, but there are a few important things to keep in mind. Don't retract your eBay bids. You might be tempted to if you won an item and have placed bids on other copies of it, or if someone drove up the price too quickly. But retracting bids violates eBay's terms of service except under specific circumstances. So don't do it. Be careful about over-bidding. When you get started with sniping, it can be easy to put a ton of items on your list.
And if they end close together, you might end up winning more of them than you expect. Remember that sniping isn't always going to work. If an item has a huge number of bidders or a single very committed bidder, you're likely to get outbid by eBay's automatic bidding system.
Sniping is best used on smaller items that aren't seeing a huge amount of competition. As long as your expectations are reasonable, sniping can be a great strategy for winning eBay auctions.
Just know the limitations, don't go crazy, and you'll be fine. It's not going to win every auction, and it could actually end up losing you a few, but it remains a viable strategy in many circumstances. Click the extension icon and fill the details to place the bid.
